The accusations against Chloe were not just hurtful, but also absurd. She’d worked tirelessly on her project, fueled by passion, not malice. David, her classmate and perceived rival, had the gall to accuse her. His smug certainty was unbearable. It felt like a physical blow.

Chloe began to notice David's habits. He always needed a specific type of coffee from the campus cafe. She “accidentally” bumped into him in the cafeteria, spilling the coffee all over his immaculate notes.

David then started getting strange emails, all from supposed publishers, claiming to want to use his work. He was thrilled. Chloe, knowing this, anonymously sent the same emails with altered deadlines. David's frantic attempts to meet impossible demands became her entertainment. It was a sweet, small victory.
